Episode 641. Infinite Wheel ‘Shylock’ (1)
Chuck…!
Jinhyeok’s eyes flashed with his sword in both hands.
The eyes of a beast like looking for prey.
It didn’t matter if anyone could use the sword’s ability properly.
startled
Orun and Hephaestus turned their bodies with their eyes down.
Seeing that Sosogoth was lying down, it seemed that he didn’t want to fall prey to the new dagger.
Chet.
It’s a pity.
Blacksmiths with muscular bodies would have had their own taste of writing.
Jinhyeok licked his lips and went out of the forge.
As soon as I went outside, the cool night breeze gently brushed my whole body.
‘I’m sure he’ll be here somewhere…’
An opponent who has enough skills to play around with, but can keep a secret even if he shows some ability.
Those who could be nominated were very limited.
Jinhyeok moved slowly, detecting the magic around him.
While tinkering with the newly acquired weapon, he pondered over how to become more effective and stronger so that he could deal with the primeval beings and those above them.
Then, suddenly, something flashed through my mind like lightning.
‘if…!’
One of the effects on this dagger. ‘Shylock’s Cruel Deal’.
Like Rick, it is the unique spear of Jaringobi Shylock, who runs the Grand Troupe.
If you use it, there is a possibility that you can greatly increase the success rate of the random box you have.
Originally, I was going to use it after purchasing other items that can manipulate the probability, but maybe I can advance the timing significantly.
I also have a trump card.
Jinhyeok’s head was spinning rapidly and the numbers of cases began to be sorted out. A path was created to produce the best results while reducing variables as much as possible.
good.
This decides what to do right now.
[The special effect of the first blade is activated!]
Ugh!
With the bright light, the space in front of my eyes split into a long horizontal line.
A gaping crack.
What appeared between them was a balrog with a huge body.
The businesslike, pitiful looking suit that is inflated to the point of bursting stands out.
It looks like a game character has been placed as it is.
In particular, the overwhelming sense of intimidation emanating from his massive 5m tall body made it impossible to distinguish whether this was a trader or a melee tanker.
“Hmm. Sudden forced summons… that’s unusual.”
Shylock wiped his glasses with a handkerchief.
It was an expression of embarrassment that he was suddenly summoned to another space while working in his office.
for a while too.
As I looked around and grasped the situation, I found the culprit behind this happening.
“That’s how it happened. Player Kang Jin-hyeok. Did you call me?”
“Hahaha, by chance… I guess you know me more than that?”
“If you don’t know you in the Tower of Trials, you are a spy. Even my top interns have heard three of your names.”
“Hmm. Well, I’m kind of famous.”
“It’s not a compliment, but… I guess it’s not like I was in vain because I left everything and met the person who is the center of the storm. Of course, it would have been much better if you had found me from the beginning.”
The corners of Shylock’s mouth twitched.
I roughly know what you’re talking about.
The ‘Infinite Wheel’ led by Shylock.
It is the second largest top in Rick Hennessy’s second top. Originally, the scale and power were similar, but as Jin-hyeok became close to Rick, the situation suddenly turned.
This is the moment when it was proven how much weight the existence of a well-known ranker has.
“We can build a good relationship from now on. Of course, if you help me.”
“Hmm. That sounds a little appetizing.”
Shylock’s gaze turned to the golden scales.
Unusual magical energy was rising from the scales with colorful patterns embossed on them.
“Hoo. This is…”
Eyes wavering.
and.
What followed was a burst of madness resonating throughout the castle.
“Cheuk… hahahaha! Is there anyone who made this? This is funny. It’s really fun.”
Long vertical pupils and bristly hair. So far, the gentle and gentlemanly appearance of the target person is nowhere to be seen. Now there were only pure balrogs who had fallen into madness.
“This contract becomes a treasure with great value if used moderately, but if you want something beyond your means, even the main god will risk his life. Are you really sure you won’t regret it?”
“Don’t worry, I will protect my life.”
“great. Then let’s start trading.”
Shylock spreads his hand. Stone statues of withered skeletons rose from the ground.
Cuckoo coo!
Skeletons holding huge books in their hands emitted bleak eyes from all directions.
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..
The black chains also rattled with a harsh sound.
It’s definitely an unusual restriction.
‘It’s quite annoying, so I tried not to do it if possible…’
I’ve done this contract in the past, but I had to go through very bad things every time I did it. It’s because I’ve often faced situations where getting what I want is a bigger belly button than my stomach.
but.
It’s different this time.
Jinhyeok took out a cube box covered with ‘?’ from the subspace.
The ‘sss-class random box’ received as a reward. It is the highest level gacha item where you can obtain numerous items, skills, and talents.
“Ku-k-k-k-k! I know what you’re thinking, but increasing your odds isn’t cheap. Especially if it’s such a nice box.”
cooong!
The scale tilted sharply to one side when the random box was placed on it.
Jinhyeok first took out all the coins and magic stones he had and put them on the other side.
Charleuk!
A huge amount of coins and magic stones rained down.
However, the scale still leaned to one side and did not even move.
It’s not like they put any fucking building on it.
The result of someone’s painstaking collection is only this much.
Shylock smiled as if he knew it.
I want to erase that leisurely smile right now.
Jinhyeok took out the balmung from the subspace and put it on the scale.
Cuckoo!
This time the scales have risen considerably.
“…what!”
Shylock, too, opened his eyes wide, as if quite surprised.
But it was a group that turned the situation around.
The scales are somewhat balanced, but you will have to pay at least twice as much to get what you want.
‘But it’s a loss to consume more than Balmung here…’
No matter how many things to eat from the random box, it wasn’t enough to invest in the window of the frost spirit or other items equivalent to it.
Then…
Jinhyeok wrote something on a piece of paper and put it on the scale.
A fluttering piece of paper was gently lifted onto the scale.
Then, suddenly, the scale tipped completely in the opposite direction.
no, where is that?
Kwaaang!
A sheet of paper completely destroyed the ground. Broken fragments reached the point of bouncing into the air.
There has never been a situation as overwhelming as this.
“What the hell did you write down?”
Shylock slowly reached for the paper. And the moment he read what was written on the paper, his face mixed with greed and excitement.
cancer will die don’t die happy
Jinhyuk bit his lip.
‘Jaringobi without blood or tears’. ‘The owner of the grand corps’. ‘Eternal No. 2’, etc.
Shylock had many nicknames, but among them, the lesser-known one was ‘human experimenter’.
It is said that one of his main sources of income is to test and further strengthen the numerous types of poisons and curses he has developed or obtained in top secret, and sell them to VVIPs at high prices.
However, it is inevitable that the strongest person in the Tower of Trials will provide his body as a test subject.
Recalling the many curses and poisons that Shylock had recently acquired, which one to use and experiment with first… All sorts of endless imaginations unfolded.
What I liked most of all…
this deal was that if the target died, you wouldn’t have to pay.
‘Manipulating the odds isn’t expensive. I covet that human body… but it’s a waste.’
Often, when you become the owner of a large group, you will have one or two treasured items. Naturally, Shylock also had treasures that crossed the boundaries of the system.
Very hard. Thousands of years of hard work and gathering.
however. The opportunity to take care of your own profit while saving it has come.
“You shouldn’t resent me even if I die?”
Shylock smiled mischievously.
“You’re the one who won’t say anything else with one mouth later.”
[The contract has been established.]
[The number of experiments on the human body is three times in total. If you survive through 3 chances, you’ll be able to acquire Shylock’s ‘Shiny-Eating Jewel’!]
Cheerreuk!
Chains tightly bound the two ankles.
There is no hole to escape now.
???
The time when everyone went to bed after the festival. Unfamiliar shadows appeared in front of the mansion where the deceased members of the Corporation were sleeping.
“Im here.”
The Death Knight, one of the four knights in the Book of Revelation, looked around.
Strangely, not a single sentry was seen around the mansion.
Not only Lee Tae-min’s drone and Teresa’s sanctuary, but even one of the numerous Ataraxian vampires that Elise had.
It had to be.
Because this place had already been cleared by a single monster.
“You are late.”
A handsome white-haired man appeared from the darkness.
Bellus.
Elise’s right-hand man and Ataraxia’s de facto second-in-command.
“It took some time because the defenses were subtly dense.”
Unknown lightly brushed the dust off his body and continued.
“What about Alice?”
“He is sleeping peacefully in his room. The surrounding blood relatives have also been neatly organized.”
“Indeed, it is an excellent skill that is not like an operator. It seems that the choice to stay together without getting rid of it was the right one.”
“A word of exaggeration. In the first place, I didn’t even want to walk down the same path as the outdated idiots. Stagnant water will rot someday.”
Belus smiled and stretched out his palm toward the mansion.
The door to the inside was wide open.
The intruders immediately went inside and moved in two directions.
Unknown and the two knights go to Teresa’s.
Bellus and the two knights go to the place where Elise is.
The top priority is to kill the enemy as much as possible and achieve the goal quietly, not an all-out war.
But the moment everyone went into their respective bedrooms.
An unbelievable sight unfolded.
“I have been waiting for you.”
“You are here.”
Alice and Teresa faced the intruders fully armed.
